Let's talk about sex, or poetry, or cats, or scary stories...

Organizers of the free local event Easton Book Festival have invited Parisian Phoenix publisher and author Angel Ackerman and Kink Noir author William D. Prystauk to anchor a panel, Sex in the Text, at Centre Square’s Book and Puppet Company Oct. 22 at 7 p.m.

Former local journalist Angel Ackerman pens the Fashion and Fiends series, paranormal urban fantasy books which highlight many familiar Lehigh Valley settings. William D. Prystauk, a screenwriter and former English professor at Kutztown University, writes the mystery/BDSM erotica series Kink Noir. Local poets and fellow Parisian Phoenix authors Nancy Scott and Darrell Parry will read their work in the same location, also on Oct. 22, at 5 and 6 p.m. respectively.

The fourth annual Easton Book Festival, a free community event happening live and online from October 21-30 in multiple venues throughout Easton, Pennsylvania. The event features more than 120 authors, booksellers, artists, entertainers, workshops and panelists.
